Description

In his comprehensive and captivating new book, The Congress of Vienna and its Legacy: War and Great Power Diplomacy after Napoleon, Dr. Jarrett thoroughly explores this watershed event in world history and the subsequent “Congress System.” In a convenient single volume being praised as “the book on the time period” and an “essential read,” Dr. Jarrett provides a comprehensive and up-to-date treatment of the diplomacy of the entire “Congress Era” based on original research.
